I was banned for swearing, I did not mean to swear in anyway. I accidentally said *** cause I saw my house was griefed. I do not think that it is reasonable to ban someone for a accidental swear, please do unban me.

If swearing isn't allowed in-game, what makes you think it is allowed in the forums? Plus, you don't 'accidentally' swear. That would be like dropping heavy objects in the keyboard in such a way that they spell out inappropriate words, twice.

It is perfectly reasonable to ban someone over infractions of stated rules. If you house was indeed griefed, it is best to notify a staff member.

Yes but usually I am allowed to say swears on other servers so I was getting used to it. I had also not played minecraft therefore minerealm in a while.

Just because your allowed to doesn't mean you should.
You get two chances anyway, and it's plastered on signs at /spawn

God, kids these days...bah humbug....old man moaning in general :p

What's an "accidental" swear? If this was an "accidental" swear, and "accidental" swears weren't bannable, most swearing would go unpunished. In any case, the reason for the ban is because we have young children on this server, and we like to keep the chat clean in any case. There is no excuse for swearing, and even if you disagree with the rules, you still have to follow them. If you have a problem with the rules, go to another server, because that one isn't changing any time soon.

Why can't even one new player who is banned read the rules for once. Those signs are there for a reason. Even when you first join, IT SAYS DON'T SWEAR. I wish we had better new players. I would return this handful, but I lost a receipt so I am stuck with them.

Ps. That doesn't include cosmicbrownie40. He/She actually read our rules for once.

an accidental swear is when you see your house is griefed and your used to being able to swear and your an extremely fast typer and said it in about 1.5 seconds...

asif i didnt see that ps. at the bottom and was about to quote you about cosmicbrownie40's appeal, it really brings a tear to the eye does it not.

Well this is why we have rules in place, swearing isn't allowed not matter how trivial. In those situations call for staff if staff aren't around post the coordinates/griefed area on here or pm and we will get to it asap.

You will be unbanned Monday April 8, 2013.

And in less than 1.5 seconds, a warning pops up saying "Sgtwanntsteawah, if you use inappropriate language again, you will be banned."

And it shows up in highlighted PURPLE TEXT . How do you miss a warning as blatant as that?

You should've known to have been careful from your warning that you were given, don't make excuses.
